Android: Getting string from strings.xml in Java code

First of all, please note I´ve been trying to search and existing answer to this question. I found this question, but is not helping.

I am simply trying to get strings from regular Java (domain) classes within an Android app, but I am not able to get them by using getResources().

Is this possible? (I´d like to avoid creating a new strings.xml alike file in order to centralize all the strings within the app)

Thanks in advance.

EDIT: Am I forced to pass Context to every single Java class? Is there any way to avoiding it?

Pass context to the Java classes in their constructors. Assign this context to class variable. Then you can do mContext.getResources().getString(---)

You will have to also import the R.java in this class

You need to have access to a Context object (passing it so a non android class e.g.).

Using this Context you can call context.getResources().getString(R.string.mystring);
